Ocean Alley Return With Blistering New Single Tangerine

Globally renowned Australian rockers Ocean Alley have returned with expansive new single Tangerine, the first taste of new music from the six piece since 2022’s critically acclaimed album Low Altitude Living.

Inspired by the breathtaking landscapes band members Baden Donegal and Lach Galbraith encountered moving from Byron Bay to Western Australia, the expansive and inviting Tangerine captures the essence of a sun-drenched summer day. From its opening toasty riffs, the track blends Southern-rock vibes with a classic touch of Ocean Alley’s psychedelic flair; Donegal’s honey-rich vocals effortlessly washing over the cinematic production. Teaming up with production mastermind Nick DiDia (Pearl Jam, Powderfinger, Rage Against The Machine) for the first time, the swirling melodies, dreamy harmonies and vintage guitar tones evoke a feeling of drifting through a golden sun-lit haze.

Ocean Alley (Jamieson Kerr)

Speaking on the track, lead singer Donegal said: “We drove across the Nullarbor with our wives and dogs. The long straight roads, the isolation and the different landscapes were intense and amazing. There was such contrast between the red dirt and crystal blue ocean. Seeing parts of the desert and sunsets on that commute, the sky turning orange, or tangerine, is what really inspired this song.”

The accompanying video was shot on location during Ocean Alley’s groundbreaking tour of North America – on the drive from their sold out show in Denver en route to Calgary – in Billings, Montana (think the Kevin Costner-led hit TV drama Yellowstone!). Directed by Jamieson Kerr (West Coast, Lapwing, Drinks & Cigars), the clip applies the song’s feeling of openness and remoteness into a new context; equally picturesque and underscored with intrigue, lathered with a sense of freedom and reckless abandon.

Tangerine follows 12 months of staggering growth for Ocean Alley, whose unmistakeable influence continues to inspire new audiences around the world – having now amassed over a billion catalogue streams. Over their 2023/2024 Australian headline shows alone, the band sold more than 65,000 tickets. Plus, with extensive touring across North America and the United Kingdom/Europe, they have respectively sold 7,000 and 10,000 more tickets year on year, with 21 of 33 shows sold out or upgraded overseas this year. The UK leg of the tour saw the band play shows in Brighton, Exeter, Bournemouth, Margate, Bristol Birmingham, Glasgow as well as sold out shows in Bristol, Manchester and concluding with two sold out shows at London’s Roundhouse.

Ocean Alley have truly emerged as one of Australia’s most beloved musical exports, never wavering in their dedication to their craft, and genuinely grounded by their passion and desire to make music. Across four critically acclaimed albums, the six-piece – comprised of Baden Donegal (vocals), Angus Goodwin (guitar), Lach Galbraith (keys/vocals), Mitch Galbraith (guitar), Tom O’Brien (drums) and Nic Blom (bass) have unearthed a formidable global following, and with 9 accredited singles of gold or higher in AU & NZ, 1 gold accredited album in AU & NZ] in tow, this is just the beginning as their stadium-sized ambitions are poised to leave an enduring mark on the music landscape for many years to come.

Wyatt Flores Brings Honest Heart And Sharp Style To London’s Roundhouse

On a crisp October night at London’s Roundhouse, Wyatt Flores stepped onto the stage to a roaring crowd, his name echoing around the vaulted room with a force that surprised even him. Supporting 49 Winchester on their UK run, the Oklahoma-born singer-songwriter might technically have been the opener, but from the reaction that greeted him, it was clear many had come just as much for Wyatt.
